In addition, check out our article and podcast episode Raising Children with Healthy Video Game Habits by Taming Gaming author Andy Robertson, as well as a later podcast episode Preparing for your child’s first smartphone.

Becky Sedgwick’s article Equipping Kids to Live Well with Social Media helps parents and carers to explore this area of modern parenting.

And Talking about Pornography might be a helpful article, as our children’s access to pornography can often widen through social media and gaming.
